CHIEF OF sTRANoLERs.
A Hideous Old Thug Tries His Terrible
Arts Tourist.

Arts a Tourist.
MANY of the great criminals whom I
nave seen bore in their faces a terrible
warning of what they were; but with the
Thugs of Jahapur it Is not so. These hui
man vampires who now gather round me,
saws a correspondent of the Philadelphia
Press, every one of whom has taken more
lives than any public executioner in
Europe, are to the outward eye a set of
quiet, slouching, meager old men, who
might be a gang of beggars, a group of
harmless village folk, party of super
animated native workmen, or any thing
on earth but what they really are.
THAT'S the chief" whispers my guide,
pointing to a small, lean, gray-beard, with
a white tur ban, who is sitting before the
nearest hut, rocking q child on his knee,
and stroking its thin, little, brown face
with the hand that has shed the blood Of
his fellow men like water.
"Ask him." rejoin I, show many muir
ders he has committed"
A momentary CLEAN of cunning wrinkles
In his sunken eyes. The old tiger is evil
IDENTIFY suspicious, and stands on his
guard.
eI can not tell" he answers, with an in
difference which, under such circum-
stances, has in it something indescribably
CHASTITY. 81 didn't keep count of them be-
yond hundred"
Snow, before we co." says to our con.
ductor, 81 mean to see for myself how the
strangling was done. Oblige me by telling
this man to put his moose around my
wrist, for don't care to trust him with
my throat"
The savage eagerness with which the
withered old skeleton obeys the call-as if
filled with fresh life by even the make-be-
lieve show of MURDERS fearful to see.
Knotting a small coin into the corner of
his handkerchief to give him a
sure hold, he slips the moose
round my arm and then, bringing his
knuckles together with a sudden twist,
gives my wrist squeeze and almost makes
the bone crack.
The awful change that passes over his
face at this moment battles all de-
scription. His dull, fiimsy eyes seem to
blaze with hell fire, his sharp, white teet h
are laid bare in wolfish grin, his shriv-
eled, corpse-like features culver with a
ferocious joy so fiendish that an actual
demon starting up before me could scarce
Iy be more appalling. The thought of that
face bending over some helpless man in
the gloomy depths of the forest, just as
the fatal moose frightened, is altogether too
much for my nerves, and it is with long
breath of relief that find myself outside
the fatal Enclosure once more

CHARMING ACTRESSES.
The Lily Gives Place to the Rose-Sta,
Trials and Triumphs.

There may have been time, perhaps,
when the pallid lily was the type of female
beauty. 1t is not so to-day.
On the stage the most charming actresses
are women of robust health.
Mrs. Largtry is the best matinee attrac-
ton on the stage, so managers say, be-
cause she is attractive to women as well as
to men. She is famous walker and an
accomplished athlete.
Two generations have ragged over the
beauty of Rose Coghlan. She is not pretty,
but she has the vigor of rude health.
Fanny Davenport was always fascinating,
and is still great favorite. AS Lady Gag
SPEAKER she would catch her Dolly in a
rapturouS embrace and swing him three
times around her, his feet never touching
the floor.
Great surprise is often expressed that
actresses are able to preserve their health
and beauty, in view of the terrible strain of
their exacting duties upon physical and
mental force.
Jennie Kimball, the mother of charming
s'Little Corinne,' who has delighted lovers
of comic opera for many years, says, under
date of May 2Sth, 1887: II was exhausted
with my severe work and the doctors told
me to give up the stage. Warmers safe
cure restored me. / have never had better
health in my life, and whenever bad feeling
returns Immediately resort to that rem
edy."
Grace Hawthorne, the American actress,
now playing Iheodord with great success In
London, Eng, IN a recent interview said
81 know how to remain in perfect health,
twithstauding the nervous strain l have
to nightly endure while playing. l use
Warmers safe cure, and it controls life and
health as nothing else will"
The really great actresses in emotional
parts are those who utterly abandon their
own personality in the assumption of the
character portrayed. The strain they I'M
dergo is one that few, outside of the profess
sion, can understand.
Maude Granger was obliged to abandon
the stage temporarily by reason of it. She
says: 'The suffering then endured, and the
,errible condition was in, can only be APP
preciated by those women who have under
gone the same experience. 1t was while
still suffering that l learned of Warmers
safe cure and began it's use. I have taken
it faithfully, and am happy to state that |
am now completely restored to health and
my usual vigor."
Many break down under the strain and,
like Sara Jewett, totally give out. Physi-
clans prescribe opiates which, perhaps,
give temporary relIefonly to make the final
collapse more certain and complete. Others
are more fortunate and find in that great
remedy an influence which "controls life
and health" and, they are thus enabled to
succeed in their highest ambitions.

HOW HE KNEW HIM.
Abraham Linco1n's Story About Hen
Ward Reecher.

Abraham Lincoln's Story About Henry
Ward Beecher.
Ben: Perley Poore is authority for the
statement that Abraham Lincoln once
told good story about Henry Ward
Beecher, who, dressed in very common
clothes, was studying human nature as
exhibited in the highways and byways of
New York. In the course Of his philo-
sophie peregrinations, he went into q
mock auction shop. He stood awhile on
entering, and reflected, doubtless. how
any one could be SO lost to all sense Of
truth and honesty as the auctioneer in
question, endeavoring to palm of his
worthless trash to the inexperienced in
city ways as good and valuable, and
finally the auctioneer called out: "Mr.
Beecher, why don't you bid:" He was
greatly astonished, as can be
imagined, at finding himself known
in this place, and, as he had supposed
in his purposely careless dress. He imme-
diately left, and started for the residence
of one of the members of the church in the
ueighborhood, and requested him, as an
act of kindness, to go down and inquire of
that person who had sold himself to Sa-
tan for the love of gain how it was that he
knew him in his disguise. The neighbor
kindly consented, and on entering the
"Peter Funk" shop he addressed tho
auctioneer:
''How is it that you know Henry Ward
Beecher so we'll as to be able to recognize
him in his disguise?"
'How do 1 know him? Why, have been
a prominent member of his congregation
for the last five years, and lease the fifth
pew from the frontW

pains and trouble that kaid Maclean
has taken with his men. who, when he
arrived. were little more than a band
OF unruly robbers. but now go through
their drills with a smartness that
would do credit to an European army.
Kaid Maclean has had many things
against him at court but he has
overcome both jealousy and fanati-
cism. and is not only beloved by his
soldiers. but honored by the Emperor
with his full confidence. Living at
Morocco or Fee, according to the
movements of the Sultan, Kaid Mac
lean has entirely given himself up to
his task with untiring zeal, and it is ow-
ing to him. and to him alone, that
Morocco can boast an army that, in
case of war. would be able to fight at
all, for. not only has he instructed
them in their drill, but has persuaded
the Sultan to arm a great proportion
of his troops with Martini-Henry
rifles. and also changed their uniform
from the picturesque. but cumber-
some. halk and jelab to sort of
zouave dress of scarlet and blue. For
the last two years Kaid Maclean has
been helped in his arduous task by his
brother. Captain Alan Maclean. whose
particular duty at present is the trans
port department and small body of
regular cavalry, which. up to his ar
rival, was in q shocking condition.
The second division of the army
Kaid Maclean is not responsible for
the Mahasni, or cavalry; and in seeing
the two divisions of the army together
one can not but appreciate the inn
mense work that has been done for
the infantry; for the cavalry, armed
with Winchester repeating rifes-ir-
regulars, with vengeance-ace in
about as wild state of barbarity as
could we'll be imagined. They corre-
spond, as mentioned above. to our mi
litia, and, like them, are only called out
upon necessity. Another part of the
army-that might almost be said 10
form division-sre the Bokhari. or
black bodyguard of the Sultan As
to the numbers of these forces.
they are somewhat uncertain, for
though probably at time
of peace they number thirty
or forty thousand, yet in case of
a war of any magnitude there is little
doubt that some hundred thousand
men could be put in the field. That
the soldiers can fight well nobody
doubts. for in the Spanish war of 1859
they worked with such desperation
that for some months the actual result
of the war was doubtful, though
finally. disorganized as they Were at
that time and only armed with flint
locks of their own manufacture. they
had to give way to superior force and
power. Their pay is miserable, and
more so. because they often go without
it. A foot-soldier gets-or is supposed
to get-four okeas day. or not quite
sixpence. out of which he has to house
and feed himself. a cavalry soldiers
pay is six okeas for himself and his
horse - London Ne1DS 81

Aren-rhousana Dollar Watch.

The death of Mr.. Alfred Denison re-
moves a well-known figure from London
society. He was younger brother of the
celebrated George Anthony Denison,
Archdeacon of Taunton, and of Mr.. Speak
er Denison, afterward Viscount Oossington.
Lady Oossington presented her brother-in-
law with ten thousand dollars for certain
services. This money Mr.. Denison invest
ed in sumptuous watch. A very musical
repeater of the best workmanship was in
closed in q gold case literally studded
with jewels, and each jewel a picked
stone. The watch chain had succession
of black pearls, and the signet was a scar

was that the owner scarcely dared wear

street, and could not leave it at home TO,

A Hasheesh Club.

Hasheesh is superseding morphine and
vaporized ether, it is said, in the affection
of the Partisan dilettanti drunkards.
They have founded Hasheesh club on
the Rue st. Michel where they meet every
Friday. The amount of the drug which
each shall take is prescribed by doctor,
and the dose is prepared by a chemist,
both members of the club. It is taken in
pills, and not chewed, drunken, or smok ed,
as are the oriental fashions. Each of the
members is bound to describe to the others,
either in writing or verbally, his sensa-
tions as the drug gains it's influence over
him.
